Duchess Antonella of Brabant

Antonella Galbaio (15 October 777-) was the legitimatized daughter of Doge Giovanni of Venice and Alessandra Galbaio.

Biography
Doge Giovanni of Venice's sister-in-law Alessandra Galbaio had an affair in January 777 four years after Alessandra was widowed by the murder of Giovanni's younger brother Leone Galbaio, with Giovanni making a move and giving her a good tumble in her chambers. Antonella was the product of this relationship, born in October. A day later, Giovanni acknowledged that she was his daughter; she remained illegitimate, but she was sanctioned as his daughter and could be married off to form alliances. She was betrothed to Duke Arnoul of Brabant while she was a day old; Arnoul was six years old.
